Indigo Girls Land Of Canaan song lyrics

You can go to the East

To find your, your inner hemisphere

You say we're under the same sky

Babe, you're bound to realize

Honey it's not that clear

I'm not your promised land at all, oh no

I'm not your promised one

I'm not the land of Canaan, oh, sweetheart

Waiting for you under the sun

I'm lonely tonight, I'm missing you now

Wanting your love and you're giving it out

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight (oooh... yeah)

Well, the meaning's changed

For what it's worth, it's just a senseless game, ah

Well I should think of a love

But it's fear every time I hear

Honey your heartbeat strain

It's not the fallen man, honey, ah

It's not the call of time

It's just the London skyline (oh sweetheart)

Telling me you're not mine

I'm lonely tonight, I'm missing you now

Wanting your love and you're giving it out

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight (oooh... yeah)

My blood is running dry, my skin is

My skin is growing thin (skin is growin' thin) oh yeah

For every time you find yourself

You lose a little bit of me (you lose a little bit)

Honey, from within (you loose a little bit)

It's just a raging cycle (it's just a raging, raging cycle)

Why can't we bring it all to the end of the line (I'd like to bring it to the end of the line)

From inside this existence, oh sweetheart

Time is not on my side

I'm lonely tonight, I'm missing you now

I'm wanting your love and you're giving it out

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight (oooh... yeah)

I'm not your promised land (I'm lonely tonight)

I'm not your promised one (Honey I'm trying)

I'm not your promised land (to tell you that I'm lonely tonight)

I'm not your promised one

I'm not the land of Canaan (I'm lonely tonight)

I'm not your land of Canaan (I'm lonely tonight)

I'm not the land of Canaan, sweetheart

Waiting for you under the sun

I'm lonely tonight...
